Holy Communion for Ash Wednesday with imposition of ashes.
A team service to mark the start of Lent.

Ash Wednesday marks the start of the season of Lent, a penitential season when we prepare ourselves for the great celebration of Easter. Traditionally, we gather to share in Holy Communion and to receive the sign of the cross in ash on our foreheads.
We use the words: Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return. Turn away from sin and be faithful to Christ.

There will be two services this year: one at Chantry Court, Chantry Lane at 11.00 am and one in the evening at All Saints at 7.00 pm. All welcome.

Join in with our fundraiser to support the planned repairs of the organ at All Saints' Church Westbury.
Ian McManus our Director of Music will be playing a selection of hymns, songs and organ music, using both organ and piano from 9am - 9pm on Saturday 28 February.

He will be playing a selection of hymns, songs and organ pieces in two hour slots, with a 30 minute break in between each two hour session. You can sponsor him for the whole day and/or sponsor him for a chosen hymn or song which will be played in the middle of the day.

Refreshments will be available on sale during the day – tea, coffee, cakes and savoury snacks. There will also be some children’s crafts and colouring available between 10.00 am and 4.00 pm, so please bring children along to join in. Our children’s corner will also be available to use.

You can also wander around our beautiful grade 1 listed building and enjoy the music and explore our church.
Members of the church will be available to chat.
